Lena Dunham is taking her post-wedding bliss to the seaside.
On Sunday, the Girls star shared a shot of herself sporting a shiny yellow one-piece swimsuit paired with outsized pale pink sun shades, her many tattoos on show as she struck a coy pose from her seaside cabana. According to her caption, the actress, author and director is one thing of a late bloomer in the case of appreciating seaside life.
“Until I was 10 I was scared of the beach and would cry hysterically if I touched sand,” she wrote. “So I guess what I’m saying is have faith, people can CHANGE!!!”
The put up additionally contains footage of Dunham’s new husband, musician Luis Felber, coming to affix her within the sea, the couple embracing as waves lap towards their legs. The pair had been married in London final September, simply months after beginning their courtship that January.
Dunham, who has been documenting her seaside trip along with her “Instagram husband,” obtained compliments from commenters for each her candy present of affection and her sunny swimsuit.
“LOVE THIS!!” raved actress Juliette Lewis, although the best reward got here from Dunham’s partner, who declared her his “beach angel dream queen.”
Though her swimsuit photograph is getting plenty of love, the 35-year-old, who not too long ago debuted her new movie Sharp Stick at Sundance, opened up final month in regards to the physique shaming she obtained after Girls skyrocketed her to fame.
“People had a very swift and strong and allergic reaction to what I looked like, and they made it very clear to me,” Dunham instructed The Hollywood Reporter in a current interview. “I was getting messages — many, many, many of them a day — about what I looked like. Things most people will never have said to them in their lives because most of polite society keeps people from walking up to each other at a Target and going like, ‘You’re fat, you’re ugly and you deserve to die.'”
She added that the criticism largely got here from ladies.
“I think people would think it would be like Trump-loving men in the heartland,” she mentioned. “But it was women. Probably women with similar body types to me who had internalized the kind of hatred that we are supposed to have of our bodies. If they weren’t going to enjoy their body, then I sure as hell wasn’t supposed to enjoy mine.”
